I'm sure these sound like stupid questions, or have really simple answers, so sorry. The really bad thing is I originally sent these to samba-bounces. Oops. Once we get this Samba AD thing installed, we'd like to have users login and mount particular shares to drive letters based on their group, not their user. All I've read about this seems to use "user" scripts (along with the user variables). By doing this, all departmental users will have the same drive mappings and we won't need to create individual user login scripts. Is this a common practice? steve campbell

Are the users logging on to Windows clients? if so, you should consider creating a GPO and a group for each department. In the GPOs preferences section you add shares.
